OPERATIE NO MOORE

Hoe revenge porn-koning Hunter Moore werd uitgeschakeld

In 2010 richtte Hunter Moore Is Anyone Up op: een website gewijd aanOne Woman's Dangerous War Against the Most Hated Man on the Internet’: een longread die leest als een beklemmende thriller. Alleen is het echt gebeurd. Het verhaal van Charlotte Laws staat vandaag centraal in Lover’s Uitgelicht.

‘Revenge porn was a pack of wolves. It was tearing our family apart. Kayla was withdrawn. Charles was agitated, and I was obsessed. I contacted Hunter Moore's publicist, his attorney, his hosting company, his Internet Service Provider in France, some of his advertisers and his mother’s former workplace at the city of Davis, where associates pressed for details about Mrs. Moore's son and his venomous website. I also registered Kayla’s photo with the U.S. Copyright office and spoke to nine attorneys about copyright law, right to privacy and options for legal recourse. The consensus was that revenge porn was largely untested in the civil courts, while criminal laws were non-existent, except in the state of New Jersey. Within days, I became an expert on revenge porn; and it was not long before lawyers were telephoning me for guidance.’ – Charlotte Laws
